About Macarthur FC

Based in South West Sydney, Macarthur FC is Australia’s newest professional football club. They will play their first Hyundai A-League match in December 2020, but the hard work to build the club from the ground up has already begun.

Their vision is to be known by all as more than a football club. They will achieve this by adhering to their brand values and through the work they do with their supporters, stakeholders and community. They are at the heart of everything that they do.

But before they build a winning team on the field, they first need to build the off-field team to deliver the most effective football club in Australia! You will need to be dedicated to achieving fantastic results, a team player and ready to go that extra mile when the 90 minutes is up.
